Chapter 213: I'll Push the Dafeng Factory to You! See How You End Up!
Zhao Lichun was originally sitting there leisurely, with a confident look on his face, as if the whole situation was under his control.
However, when the topic of the meeting turned to the problem of easy learning, his face suddenly became as gloomy as a dark cloud.
A strong feeling of dissatisfaction and surprise surged in his heart. He never expected that the situation, which he thought he had already won, would be disrupted again because of Yi Xuexue's matter. The dissatisfaction in his heart quickly spread like a tide.
At this time, Qi Tongwei cleared his throat, breaking the brief silence.
He looked at everyone with a firm gaze and said slowly, "We have to face up to Yi Xuexi's problem. The unreasonable treatment he encountered at work and the abnormal phenomena reflected behind the related incidents have attracted widespread attention. This is not just an ordinary cadre appointment issue, but also involves the atmosphere and fairness and justice principles of our entire officialdom. Moreover, as far as I know, this also involves some conflicts of interest related to the relatives of some key figures, and we cannot turn a blind eye to it."
Qi Tongwei deliberately directed his words at Zhao Lichun's son. He knew very well that this was Zhao Lichun's pain point and the key to his attack this time.
After hearing Qi Tongwei's speech, the leaders of Beijing became more serious. He stared at Zhao Lichun and said firmly, "Comrade Zhao Lichun, you must take this matter of Yi Xuexue seriously and stop evading it. Although this matter may not seem like a big deal to some of us, it involves your son, which is not a trivial matter that can be easily ignored. As officials, the power in our hands is given by the people, and we must give an explanation to the people, otherwise how can we be qualified to sit in this position and serve the people?"
The leader's eyes were as sharp as torches, as if he could see through Zhao Lichun's heart, making him feel unprecedented pressure.
Zhao Lichun secretly groaned in his heart. He glared at Qi Tongwei fiercely and cursed in his heart: "This Qi Tongwei is so hateful! He is deliberately causing trouble for me and wants to use this opportunity to weaken my power."
He originally thought that he had been operating in Handong for many years and had extensive influence, enough to control everything. However, he did not expect that Qi Tongwei would be so keen to seize this opportunity to create trouble for him.
His expression became increasingly ugly, his brows were furrowed as if they could pinch a fly to death, and his eyes revealed anger and helplessness.
But on the surface, he had to pretend to be calm, squeezed out a forced smile and said: "Leader, I have always attached great importance to this issue, but some of the situations are more complicated and need time to sort out and resolve."
At this moment, the director of the procuratorate saw that the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense and hurried out to smooth things over.
He bowed slightly and said respectfully to the leader: "Please rest assured, leader, our procuratorate will actively cooperate in investigating this matter and give everyone a satisfactory result as soon as possible. We will uphold the principles of justice and fairness, not favor any party, and fully and thoroughly understand the truth of the matter."
He had a sincere expression on his face, trying to ease the tense atmosphere at the scene. At the same time, he gave Zhao Lichun a soothing look, suggesting that he would do his best to deal with the matter.
However, the leaders did not relax their requirements because of the statement made by the procuratorate director.
His expression was serious, and he gave them a firm order: "I give you one month to completely resolve this matter within one month. If there is still no clear result after one month, we will report directly to the Supreme People's Procuratorate and ask them to send someone to investigate thoroughly. This matter concerns the credibility of the government and the trust of the people, and we must not slack off in the slightest. Any attempt to delay or cover up the truth will be severely punished."
The leader's words hit everyone's heart like a heavy hammer, making the atmosphere in the entire conference room even more depressing, as if the air had become thinner.
Zhao Lichun was shocked when he heard what his leader said. He knew that he could no longer be careless and dare not repeat Jinghai's mistakes.
Jinghai's previous experience made him realize that once the matter was brought to the Supreme People's Procuratorate, the consequences would be disastrous. Not only would his own career come to an end, but more people might also be implicated.
He gritted his teeth and said helplessly: "Okay, leader, we will do our best to solve this matter within a month and give the people an explanation."
There was a hint of reluctance in his voice, but also helplessness.
The atmosphere at the dinner table seemed to have solidified after that tense confrontation, and it was so depressing that it made people feel a little breathless.
At this moment, the leader of the capital raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile, and took the initiative to break the awkward and tense atmosphere.
He gently put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, slowly swept his eyes over the crowd, and said in a calm tone: "Everyone, don't be so nervous. We are sitting here to solve problems and for the better development of Handong in the future. After all, Handong's prosperity is inseparable from the joint efforts and cooperation of each of our officials."
There was a calmness and expectation in the leader's eyes, as if he was trying to calm the waves in everyone's hearts.
"We should pay attention to things that are easy to learn and deal with them seriously, but we should not let them overly affect our work rhythm and atmosphere of unity. Our goals are the same, and we all hope that Handong can prosper and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. Under this premise, we should try our best to make some problems small and small, and solve them in a more harmonious and efficient way."
The leader's words were like a warm current, flowing through everyone's heart and relaxing their tense nerves a little.
Zhao Lichun nodded slightly, forced a slightly stiff smile on his face, and said: "The leader is right. We are all doing this for the good of Handong. While dealing with the problem, we will definitely maintain unity and jointly promote the development of various tasks." Although he was still resentful towards Qi Tongwei in his heart, he had to temporarily put aside his dissatisfaction in the face of the leader's words.
Qi Tongwei also expressed his opinion: "I also hope to contribute to the development of Handong. In the process of solving problems, I will fully consider the overall situation and cooperation." He knew in his heart that the leader's mediation at this time was to avoid further deterioration of the situation, and he also needed to find more suitable opportunities in this process to achieve his goals.
Other officials also echoed the call, saying that they would follow the leadership's instructions, actively cooperate in solving problems, and work together for the development of Handong.
Night falls over the city, and street lights flicker in the darkness.
The leaders left one after another. Zhao Lichun stood there, looking at Qi Tongwei with a gloomy face.
He did not show much expression, but just said symbolically, "Work hard, Jingzhou needs you." His tone was so flat that no emotion could be heard, but it seemed to hide endless deep meaning.
After saying this, he turned around and strode away without any intention of staying.
Seeing this, the other officials did not dare to say anything more and followed Zhao Lichun away silently.
Their actions seemed like a silent signal, announcing to Qi Tongwei.
Even if you and Luo Shanhe have made progress on some things and captured many important cities, the headquarters here is still Zhao Lichun's territory. As long as he is there, Jingzhou and the provincial ministry will not be able to cause any major trouble.
Zhao Lichun is an old fox who has been in the officialdom for more than 30 years. He is confident that he cannot easily lose to Qi Tongwei, the rising star.
Zhao Lichun got into the car, and there was a suffocating silence in the car. His face was as gloomy as the night outside the car window, his eyes stared straight ahead, but his thoughts were turning rapidly. After returning home, he walked straight to the study, his steps were hurried and heavy, and every step seemed to be filled with deep anger.
As soon as Zhao Lichun entered the study, he immediately dialed Zhao Ruilong's number and shouted in a low and stern voice: "Come here right now!" Zhao Ruilong on the other end of the phone heard his father's anger, his heart tightened, and he quickly put down what he was doing and hurried to Zhao Lichun's house.
Zhao Ruilong had just stepped into the study, before he could even stand firm, Zhao Lichun suddenly stood up, pointed at his nose and cursed: "Look at what you have done! I gave you enough time to deal with Luzhou's affairs, what did you do? Now it's become this mess, how do you want me to clean it up?" Zhao Lichun's voice echoed in the study, full of anger and disappointment.
Zhao Ruilong lowered his head, with beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He explained carefully, "Dad, I really tried my best. I originally arranged for Hou Liangping to handle it, thinking that he could do it well, but who knew that he was so unreliable and didn't handle the matter cleanly. Besides, Yi Xuexi is now the deputy mayor, and the situation is different from before. If we act rashly, Luo Shanhe will definitely find evidence of us, and the consequences will be disastrous." Zhao Ruilong's voice trembled slightly. He was afraid of his father's scolding, but also felt helpless about his current predicament.
After hearing what Zhao Ruilong said, Zhao Lichun was so angry that he paced back and forth in the study. His footsteps were particularly clear in the quiet room, and every step seemed to trample on people's hearts. "Humph! You only know how to make excuses! Hou Liangping is not good enough, what are you doing yourself? Don't you know how to keep an eye on it? Now, Qi Tongwei has seized this opportunity to make a big fuss. We have been forced to this point by him. What do you think we should do?" Zhao Lichun's eyes revealed deep anxiety and anger.
The atmosphere in the study was extremely tense, as if the air had frozen. The clock on the wall was ticking, and every tick seemed to hit people's hearts, making them even more irritable and uneasy.
Zhao Ruilong raised his head and looked at his father's angry expression, his heart filled with regret and helplessness. "Dad, what should we do now?" There was a hint of urgency and helplessness in his voice.
Zhao Lichun stopped, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "There is no other way now. We must make drastic changes. Clean up some people in Luzhou, pick out a few key officials, and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys! Let others know that whoever dares to do things recklessly will end up like this. Only in this way can we temporarily stabilize the situation and prevent Qi Tongwei and others from taking advantage of the opportunity again." Zhao Lichun's eyes revealed a determination and firmness. He knew that this was a difficult decision, but under the current circumstances, he had no choice.
Zhao Ruilong frowned, hesitated for a moment and said, "But Dad, if this happens, the power we have worked so hard to build in Luzhou will suffer a great blow."
Zhao Lichun glared at him fiercely and said, "That's better than being wiped out! The most important thing now is to protect our foundation and not let Qi Tongwei and his men succeed. We can find a way to slowly recover later. You hurry up and make arrangements. Move quickly and don't make any more mistakes!"
Zhao Ruilong nodded helplessly, turned around and prepared to leave the study to carry out his father's order. His steps were heavy, and his heart was full of reluctance and helplessness. He knew that this incident was a huge blow to them, but he could only do what his father wanted, hoping to survive this crisis.
Zhao Lichun looked at Zhao Ruilong's departing back and sat back in his chair tiredly. He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and sighed deeply.
Zhao Lichun knew that he was facing tremendous pressure at the moment. Liang Qunfeng was under control and could not escape in the next few months, which meant that the responsibility of dealing with Qi Tongwei fell entirely on his shoulders. After much deliberation, he decided to find Chen Yanshi, but Chen Yanshi was a complicated existence in his heart.
Chen Yanshi is an old celebrity. He performed well in the war and hard years, but he was a mess in the economic field. Now that he is old, he has become a little arrogant. Zhao Lichun is both disdainful and helpless towards him. "Although this old guy has some prestige, he is really useless in economic construction." Zhao Lichun muttered to himself, but at this critical moment, he had to consider using some of Chen Yanshi's influence.
However, Zhao Lichun quickly rejected the idea of relying solely on connections to solve the problem. "How can I, Zhao Lichun, do things like Hou Liangping, relying solely on connections? Wouldn't that make me look too incompetent?" He had his own pride and persistence. Since Qi Tongwei was going to cause trouble, he decided to do the opposite, suppress the problems in Jingzhou City first, and let Qi Tongwei clean up the mess himself.
He set his sights on Dafeng Factory. In his opinion, Dafeng Factory was not as Qi Tongwei thought, thinking that it could be easily done by introducing high technology. "Humph, Qi Tongwei, you want to make a fuss about this, but I won't let you do it. I will demolish Dafeng Factory and use this trick to put you in trouble. Let's see how you end it." Zhao Lichun thought to himself.
Dafeng Factory became a card in his hand. He wanted to use this card to disrupt Qi Tongwei's layout and bring the situation back under his control.
"Young man, don't you want to play?"
"I'll play with you till the end."
"Let's see who is stronger, you, the newborn calf, or me, the Bull Demon King!"
